Rosarito International Mariachi & Folklórico Festival

ROSARITO INTERNATIONAL MARIACHI & FOLKLÓRICO FESTIVAL

Rosarito

The International Mariachi & Folklorico Festival is at the legendary Rosarito Beach Hotel.  The festival showcases what’s best in mariachi and folklore today.  People travel to the Baja Peninsula from all over the world to enjoy this memorable event.

Stellar Performances

This year’s festival is a top-notch showcase of talent.  According to reports, Mariachi Divas, Mariachi Vargas, and even members of Aguila Tijuana will perform.  Live music and world-class vocal performances, superior musicianship, and extraordinary dancing!  As Rosarito is roughly a half-hour from the US border, many travelers will want to plan ahead of time to witness this spectacular event.

Accompanying Mariachi Events

The festival also features mariachi and dance workshops for beginner, intermediate, and advanced practitioners.

This annual fundraiser is an event that supports the Boys and Girls Club of Rosarito.  It’s a ‘Dining with Stars’ event that attracts many who want to support the arts as well as the city’s youth programs.  Anyone interested in going should check the hotel’s website for up-to-date information regarding the time and date of specific performances and events.

Mariachi and Folklorico

These traditional forms of music and dance are famous throughout Mexico.  Both are popular at holidays and various Mexican festivals throughout the year.  The festival is the perfect time to see many interpretations of these traditional Latin American art forms.  The performances are rivaled only by the delightful costumes that make this such a singular summer fest!
